Seattle Weather: Sunshine Returns Sunday
Seattle - Light rain fell over much of Western Washington this morning and the cold front swept through the area. Most areas saw close to 2-tenths of an inch of rain early this morning. Unfortunately, many spots east of the Cascades missed out on the rain and conditions there were dry with very gusty winds near the current wildfires. Skies will slowly clear overnight with skies becoming mostly sunny by Sunday afternoon. A few spots may see some patchy fog in the morning, but will quickly clear out. We'll see plenty of sunshine return to the area as yet another ridge of high pressure rebuilds. Afternoon highs will slowly rebound back to near 70 degrees. The stretch of sunshine, dry skies and mild temperatures will continue through next weekend and beyond.

Trade winds to weaken by Memorial Day
HONOLULU (KHON2) – At the surface, a strong high to the far northwest of the state and a weaker high to the far east-northeast are separated by a northeast-to-southwest oriented front heading eastward towards the West Coast of the mainland. This pair of highs will continue to bring moderate to locally breezy trade winds to the island chain through this weekend. As a broad low develops to the distant northeast early next week, it will weaken the high to the northwest, relax the local pressure gradient, and bring lighter trade winds to the area. This weaker flow will persist through much of next week and may allow for sea breeze development across some leeward areas, increasing clouds and bringing a slight chance of rain. Looking aloft, the upper level low that's been responsible for enhancing tradewind showers over the last day or two will gradually push eastward and away from the state over the next couple of days, with mid level ridging building overhead in its wake. A weak upper level trough/low will develop near the northwestern end of the state midweek, and sweep across the state on Wednesday. While this feature will introduce some instability aloft, moisture will still be limited, so not expecting it to cause much of an uptick in showers at this time. A strong mid level ridge will quickly build overhead in its wake, bringing more dry and stable conditions through the rest of the week. Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM HST Sunday for Maalaea Bay, Pailolo Channel, Alenuihaha Channel, Big Island Leeward Waters, Big Island Southeast Waters. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Guardian journalists in revolt over ‘miserable' website redesign
Guardian journalists are in 'open revolt' against editor Katharine Viner over a website redesign which they claim means their work is not being read. The newspaper this month rolled out a new app and homepage, which it said would help readers 'stay informed without feeling overwhelmed'. But journalists have complained that the new format prioritises international stories and features at the expense of UK news, leaving readers in the dark and staff 'miserable'. In an email to editors, reporters wrote: 'We'd like to point out that aside from the handful of UK news stories which are given a prominent front page slot, though often for a brief period of time, the rest of our stories are simply getting lost. 'There is arguably a correlation between the decimation of local news and the rise of Reform – we worry that taking the focus off UK news makes it harder for us to do exactly this kind of reporting there is currently such a market for.' They added: 'And in turn, not being read, thus not having impact, is miserable! Please understand how demotivating and demoralising this is.' A Guardian spokesman said: 'The recent redesign has in fact increased the amount of news shown on the homepage and it has been well received by readers, with early data demonstrating they are spending significantly longer on the homepage, with a broader range of articles being read. 'We continue to be committed to in-depth coverage of the UK – it remains our biggest edition and we now have more regional reporters across the UK than ever before.' While website redesigns often prove controversial at first, the backlash underscores tensions between Guardian staff and management over its direction. The newspaper has been investing heavily to expand in the US and Australia, while in 2023 it launched a dedicated Europe edition. In a memo to staff on Friday, Ms Viner said: 'We have found new audiences by delivering fantastic journalism across the world, which, in turn, has led to a significant growth in our reader revenue. That global strategy has allowed us to invest in Britain and abroad.' But bosses are now battling to win journalists over to the strategy, with senior editors summoned to a two-day off-site meeting this week. A separate team has been assembled on a longer-term project to explore ways to 'future-proof' the organisation. Sources close to The Guardian insisted its strategy was working, with revenues hitting a record £275m last year while the company trimmed its cash outflows from £37m to less than £25m. Revenues from outside the UK are understood to have topped £100m, while 70pc come from digital. The website saga has reignited discontent about Ms Viner in the aftermath of the sale of The Observer to Tortoise, a start-up run by former BBC News boss James Harding. Journalists mounted a vocal campaign against the sale of the world's oldest Sunday newspaper, which they branded a 'betrayal'. Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
